In GCP, there are multiple ways of interacting with objects. In case of Cloud Storage buckets, we can use the GUI console, gsutil command line, or REST (JSON or XML) API. Creating a bucket in GCP Cloud storage requires three fields:
- Region
- Storage class
- Universally unique name
When you create a regional bucket, you are prompted for the region in which that bucket will be housed; you are not prompted for the specific zones though. The system decides that.
When you create a multi-regional bucket, you are prompted to pick from one of three multi-region locations–Asia, the EU, and the US. Again, you can't pick which specific regions within that house your data; the system decides that too. This could be a significant issue if you have a statutory requirement to meet (for example, the data should never leave Country X within APAC).
